Meh, this seems to be dying out a bit as a national outrage. Over at the citrus bowl a band member from FAMU was killed in a "hazing" incident 4 months back and nobody gave a shit. Rumors he might have been gay, which means he's totally disowned by pop black culture. His life was still worth something but nobody really gave a shit though I will say the tide is turning on his case. I do think in the hazing murder there will be arrests just as in Zimmerman's case, but still.

Frankly, one of the reasons I don't give much of a shit is my wife was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and just had a double mastectomy last week. It's hard to get too worked up about a media circus that will eventually resolve itself.

Thanks, much appreciated, the chemo starts soon and apparently some radiation on the way, (find out what order and how much tomorrow), but the my main role is just trying to keep her positive. And since I do waste a little time on these types of stories I have to keep it in check. Don't get me wrong following the story is not a waste of time at all, but perhaps it is for me. Bigger fish to fry right now.

The positive thing is the key, as someone that has a mother who lost her battle and a grandmother that wants to give up on hers, it all comes down to keeping them positive. Good luck to you on that. Seriously. If I lose the Grams this year it'll be a bad year and the Gramps will follow quickly.

Part of staying pos, is making sure you laugh hard everyday. Some funny stuff in here. South Park doing the "meme" show the other night about killed me. I had no idea people were breading cats. Twitter also a damn good companion.

The cops told him to stop for a reason, regardless of what happened, he went after it.

This ^^^^^^^

Except the part where you would have dropped him if confronted face to face with the gun...

Its still within the realm of possibilty that Zimmerman was walking back to his car and was attacked by Martin from behind, the gun wasn't exposed until the struggle and the shot was not intentional and unless you're Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson or Ray Lewis,etc there is already an element of doubt...

I know this may come as a shock to some but, in this country an individual is still innocent until proven guilty.................I think

I remember when presidents and black leaders would actually get together and plead for calm while waiting for justice to run its course....now, even the POTUS is convicting in the press...

And in other news, the retards on the Supreme Court said strip searches are legal for all arrests. Doesn't matter if you just get picked up because you forgot to pay a couple parking tickets..... you might have to squat and cough.

And the pigs in congress are trying censor the web again. A new bill, CISPA with cloudy language much like SOPA has been created. Because they have protect "us" from cyber attacks by shitting on privacy and free speech rights.

Congress should do the honorable thing and put loaded guns in their mouths and pull the fucking triggers. It won't be much of a mess.

eh, build some redundancy into the system, harden a few critical pieces of infrastructure and let us be on our way. Over the top government fixes will only create more problems all while stripping our freedom.

"When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with experience leaves with money and the man with money leaves with experience."

If only Republicans could actually figure out limited and small government instead of all the social domination bullshit. I'm not surprised by any of this shit. Hell, Scalia (no idea on how he voted on the above) had a great quip the other day on the Health Care Law. "You expect us to go line by line on all 2,700 pages?" No Antoninininin no one should have to go through 2,700 pages.

Fucking tards make it so convuluted and ineffective.

"When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with experience leaves with money and the man with money leaves with experience."

Okay that first page is enough for me to stick to my guns, that's stupid. I recently had a warrant out for my arrest because the stupid City of Cleveland applied payment 10 days after I mailed my check, 3 days after the court date. They cashed the check just fine, no notification I was due the extra courts costs cause they can't apply payments timely. My record is as clean as the wind driven snow and this could easily have been me?

WTF was gained? Seriously.

"When a man with money meets a man with experience, the man with experience leaves with money and the man with money leaves with experience."

"..........Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror."

I'm not saying we're there yet, but the more apathetic people become and give power to those that crave/thrive off it, the more close it comes to reality. I'm not one to accept or endorse violence, but in 20 years I'll be the champion of this board upon revealing myself as a dangerous killing machine with a fetish for Fawkesian masks. ¡Viva la revolución!
